I suppose I'll have to see how things go and what feels right. I do fancy him... he's very nice, but I don't want to muck up a decent friendship either.
And please, no murdering!! This is why I'm keeping it from Marc. for now.
Yes, back home. It was the night you called and I picked up the phone, when everything turned chaotic. Brilliant timing, wasn't it?
[It's a wonder how Marc hasn't come over to ask him why he's so nervous, considering their emotion bond, but he's grateful for that. Steven is still all red in the face when he looks up across the hall to Layla and takes a deep breath, giving her a sheepish smile.]
You were just working yourself up there. One step at a time, okay? Besides, you don't need to be anyone but yourself. If he likes you then that's what he wants as well.
Besides, you're on the verge of cluing in marc at this rate.
[Talking to a crush about another crush is totally normal, right? Right??]
He's actually very sweet, probably the friendliest person I've met in a while, even here. A very loyal friend too! He comes from a world where magic is normal, so he's a mage. It's wicked.
He's the one I visit for our veggies. gives them away for free and everything.
[I mean he's telling one crush he's got a date with another crush, so what's the difference at this point?]
He sounds delightful. I'd definitely like to meet him one day and see his magic, I've wanted to see some at some point! And do pass on my compliments for the veggies.
[She almost goes off on a tangent about finally seeing the unicorn, but thinks twice about it. Not the time or subject Layla.]
I have no doubt he'd be more than happy to show it off, even if you don't know him. Marc met him once, though I don't think he knows how close we are beyond being the local farmer I mooch veg off of.
[He looks up at her curiously at the question before texting:] I'm English, of course I drink. Not in excess but a brew here and there can be nice.
I'm definitely not one to take advantage often. To be honest, I'm more a fan of something sweet and bubbly, but I think I'll be just fine. It's more about the company than the activity anyway, yeah?
Yeah he really just goes with the easiest route. It looks great, don't get me wrong, but sometimes I wanna style his hair. And I would be glad to teach you. At least your hair is short, it makes it a little easier.

If he does he's dead.
[She cringes a little.]
Was this back home? Like he took over the body it's Marc's fault kind of thing?

Alright alright, no murder. I'll be the reasonable one.
[She looks up at him and gives him a smile.]
Ah, okay. Still, two days late, that has to be some kind of record.
no subject
[more than a little...]
It was dreadful. everything makes sense now though, and it led me to meeting Marc and you, so I can't be too peeved.

I'll tell him eventually, I just don't want him to get all... Marc about it. I'm nervous enough as it is.
no subject
I'll do my best to distract him the day of your date.
So, tell me about Hawke. What's that big hunk of man like?

Do you drink?

Just checking! You don't seem like the type to drink much so I was curious. I know Marc has done enough to your shared liver.
Figured if you didn't drink a brewery would be a terrible place for a date is all.

You're not gonna mess this up or be two days late, he already likes you, yeah? So embrace that and have fun.

I'm glad you're here. I couldn't talk about these things so easily with Marc.
no subject
What don't want to get b-movie romance advice?
no subject
God... I'm so sorry. I can only imagine the kinds of dates he's taken you on.
no subject
Dates? What dates? Man wouldn't know what a date was if it bit him on the nose.
[She laughs, obviously it was said in good humor.]
